Regardless of which trade you are in, using an inspection checklist is considered to be a best practice. When we go into a home as a residential service contractor, there is an overwhelming amount of things to look at. Using a checklist keeps our eye on the big picture.

Tune-ups, spring checks, club member visits. I don’t care what you call them we are quickly approaching that time of year again and what are you going to do better this season? I ask this all the time because a large number of contractors look at these visits as a nuisance or a chore.
